Nellie Mae Rowe

So we all went to the High on Saturday to find an artist for Ben to study. He picked a woman named, Nellie Mae Rowe. She is a self-taught artist that made primitive-style drawings, life-size dolls, found object sculptures and chewing gum sculptures!! She decorated her house with all of these things and called her whimsical house, Nellie Mae's Playhouse. Ben picked a drawing by the same name to study.It is so much fun to go to the High with Ben. He loves lying on the floor of a gallery and drawing based on a picture he sees.
